Na Kim Set
ROMA Publications 2015 ISBN 9789491843440 Acqn 25668
Pb 23x30cm 122pp col ills 27
This book features a collection of Na Kims work from 2006 to 2015 published on the occasion of
her fourth solo exhibition, SET (named after this publication) at DOOSAN Gallery New York, from
October 8 to November 5, 2015. For this book, fragments of her works are set in more or less
personal categories, taking on a form reminiscent of a sample book. In contrast with other
catalogues that are linked to an exhibition, published before the shows opening, this book
sketches the pre-exhibition content and establishes the guidelines for the imaginary stage set in
the exhibition space.

genre. It emphasizes model books for drawn lettering rather than writing. Publications of this sort
were important not only for the lithographers, but also for sign painters, letter cutters and others
who were active professionally with lettering.

he is seen as a cult figure and an inspiration for many.

With pieces by Marcello Fois, Philip Larrat-Smith and Pallanti himself, with colourful illustrations
by Federico Maggioni, 'Growing and guarding' traces the journey of Castello di Ama and its
family, presenting the places and works on display in the estate, in a journey between wine and

Transformers
Corraini Editore 2015 ISBN 9788875705374 Acqn 25820
Pb 24x28cm 184pp col ills 37.95
We are immersed in a reality that is constantly transforming: new technologies and the
relationship between digital and individual create a universe in which the subject must constantly
adapt and change to the surroundings in order to understand the world and express itself.
'Transformers', the book which accompanies an exhibition at the MAXXI in Rome, fits into this
logic. Through their work, four artists from four different countries express their views on
contemporary mutability. Choi Jeong Hwa, Martino Gamper, Pedro Reyes and Didier Fiuza
Faustino are, in some way, transformers: weapons become musical instruments, chairs are
made from handmade fabrics.

The series of graphics reproduced in this book took different amounts of time to complete: the
Architectural Crossouts the Art of Art works were done in one month, dedicating myself
completely to them; those of Peso Piuma I drew quickly in just one afternoon, and those of
Otranto were completed in a day. One year, one day, one week. For each plate I pursued distant
lands of images, sensations and rendering. Accompanied by a critical text by Christian Leigh, the
book sheds light on this area of production by the multifaceted and versatile artist, Corrado Levi.
